[Koha] regarding importing of marc records

[Ata ur Rehman]

Dear Vijay Kumar

I am pasting your records (vijay.mrc file) here for inline comments:

Regards,
Ata
LISolutions.org

Your posted file vijay.mrc is not an mrc file. It is .mrk file and you have
to convert it into .mrc using marcedit before importing it into Koha

=LDR  00000nam a2200000Ia 45e0
Replace all 45e0 value with 4500 before converting this file to .mrc

100 tag is not repeatable according to MARC21 standard, So you can not use
more than one $a values in 100.  For multiple authors you have to use 750$a
(Added entry for personal names)

300$f is for Type of Unit, but you have mentioned some date here.  Use
standard 300$a, $b and $c
=440  \\$aPrentice- Hall Software Series

I don't know what is 850 $a (If it is some hodling information, you have to
use 942 tag)
=999  \\$1003
999$1 is not defined in Koha (I am using Koha 2).  If it is some local
number denoting items, then you have to mention it in 952
